ASUS is the first to produce a dual-GPU card based on the HD 3850 from AMD
that finally gives AMD an option in the $300-350 price range. Can it live up
to the competition of the 9800 GTX and how does it compare to the HD 3870
X2?

Quote: "The ASUS Radeon HD 3850 X2 1GB turned out to be a surprisingly
competent graphics card that augments the gaping hole between the HD 3870 X2
and the HD 3870 in the product stack. ASUS is the only card vendor
currently selling this product design and its likely they will remain so as
the life span of the RV670 creeps along. But with the aggressive pricing
ASUS has put on the product (that hopefully becomes MORE aggressive) the
9800 GTX from NVIDIA has a new, and very competent, competitor. If ASUS and
AMD can get the word about this custom ASUS-built Radeon HD 3850 X2 it might
breathe new life into AMD's GPUs this spring."
